Back to Back Barries podcast: what the Vic spill means for federal politics
Tony Barry and Jon Faine (sitting in for Barrie Cassidy) examine the ousting of Jacinta Allan and the election of Ben Carroll as the new premier of Victoria. What does it mean for November's state election? And while they say anything can happen, Tony’s tummy compass points to a win for opposition leader Jess Wilson. They also discuss the NSW Independent Commission Against Corruption hearings and why a state investigation could stick to the federal Liberal party. And, weeks into the royal commission on antisemitism and social cohesion, they measure the impact of the hearings so far.
